IMMUNOBIOLOGY

Distinct contributions of TNF and LT cytokines to the development of dendritic cells in vitro and their recruitment in vivo

TNF/LTalpha /LTbeta (tumor necrosis factor/lymphotoxin-alpha /lymphotoxin-beta ) triple knockout (KO) mice show a significant reduction of dendritic cell (DC) number in the spleen, presumably due to defective recruitment and/or production. To distinguish between these possibilities, DCs were generated from bone marrow (BM) cultures prepared from wild-type (wt) and mutant mice in the presence of granulocyte-macrophage colony-stimulating factor (GM-CSF) and interleukin-4 (IL-4). The yield of CD11c+ major histocompatibility complex (MHC) class II+ DCs generated from TNF/LTalpha /LTbeta -/- BM culture was significantly reduced compared with wt BM culture. In order to further dissect the individual pathways responsible for defective DC properties observed in TNF/LTalpha /LTbeta -/- mice, the panel of TNF/LT ligand and receptor single KO mice were used. The production of DCs from BM culture was significantly reduced in TNF-/- and TNF receptor (TNFR) p55-/- mice, but normal in LTalpha -/-, LTbeta -/-, LTbeta R-/- mice. Recombinant TNF (rTNF) exogenously added to TNF/LTalpha /LTbeta -/- BM cultures could reverse this defect, and blocking antibodies showed partial effect on BM cultures of wt mice. Conversely, numbers of mature DCs in spleen were significantly decreased in LTalpha -/-, LTbeta -/-, LTbeta R-/- mice, but not in TNF-/- and TNFRp55-/- mice. These results reveal 2 distinct contributions of TNF/LT cytokines. First, TNF acting through TNF receptor is involved in the development/maturation of DCs in BM progenitor cultures, but this function appears to be redundant in vivo. Second, the microenvironment in peripheral lymphoid organs associated with LTalpha /LTbeta -LTbeta R signaling and chemokine production is critical for recruitment efficiency of DCs, and this pathway is indispensable.
